That includes the Magnificent 7 stocks.What are the cheapest Mag 7 stocks after the sell off?Tracey looked at price-to-earnings (P/E), price-to-book (P/E), price-to-sales (P/S) and PEG ratios to see which of the 7 stocks were the cheapest.She graded each on the individual categories and then on an overall basis.There were some surprises.Who are the Cheapest Mag 7 Stocks Right Now?1. Tesla, Inc. (TSLA)As of the recording of the podcast on Mar 12, 2025, Tesla shares had fallen 38.7% year-to-date. Was there value there?Tesla’s P/E had been above 100 last year, but after the sell-off, it fell to 77. That’s still pricey on a P/E basis as a P/E over 50 is considered extremely high. But Tesla’s price-to-sales (P/S) ratio is just 7.6. That’s the third lowest in the Mag 7.Is Tesla among the cheapest of the Mag 7 stocks even with that sky-high P/E?2. Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN)Amazon shares had fallen 13% over the last month as of the recording of the podcast. With the sell-off, Amazon’s P/E has fallen to 31.1. That’s historically low.But it’s Amazon’s price-to-sales ratio that stands out. It is just 3.2 which is the lowest among the Mag 7. And for a technology company, Amazon’s P/S ratio of 3.2 would be considered attractive.Is Amazon among the cheapest of the Mag 7 stocks even with a P/E over 30?3. NVIDIA Corp. (NVDA)As of Mar 12, 2025, NVIDIA shares were down 13.8% year-to-date. But NVIDIA is expected to grow earnings this fiscal year by another 46.8%. That has given NVIDIA a historically low P/E ratio for the company of just 24.8 at the time of the podcast.NVIDIA also had a PEG ratio, at the time of the podcast, of just 0.97. This was the lowest PEG ratio among the Mag 7 stocks. A PEG ratio under 1.0 indicates a company has both value and growth. This is a rare combination.You can legitimately call NVIDIA a “value” stock with that PEG ratio.Has NVIDIA vaulted into the top of the list of the cheapest of the Mag 7 stocks as it continues to grow earnings?4. Meta Platforms, Inc. (META)Meta Platforms was among the cheapest of the Mag 7 stocks on a fundamental basis in 2024, even though the stock rallied. But as of Mar 12, 2025, the shares were down 14.6% over the prior month. Is this a buying opportunity?Meta Platforms now trades with a forward P/E of 22.7. This is the second lowest P/E among the Mag 7 stocks. And compared to most growth stocks, a P/E of 22.7 would be considered low. Meta Platforms also has an attractive PEG ratio of 1.2.Is Meta Platforms still on the list of the top 3 cheapest Mag 7 stocks?5. Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL)Alphabet has been among the cheapest of the Mag 7 stocks for over a year. Shares, as of the podcast’s recording on Mar 12, 2025, were down 11.7% year-to-date, making the stock even cheaper.Alphabet had a P/E ratio of 18.4. It was the cheapest stock in the Mag 7 by P/E ratio and the only stock under 20. A P/E under 15 indicates the stock is a true value stock.Alphabet also has a PEG ratio of just 1.18, which is the second lowest of the Mag 7 stocks. A PEG under 1.0 indicates value and growth, but Alphabet’s 1.18 is still low.Does Alphabet retain its crown as the cheapest of the Mag 7 stocks after the sell-off?What Else Do You Need to Know About Cheap Mag 7 Stocks?   Tune into this week’s podcast to find out which are the 3 cheapest of the Mag 7 stocks.[In full disclosure, Tracey owns shares of GOOGL, MSFT and AMZN in her personal portfolio.] Zacks' Research Chief Names "Stock Most Likely to Double"Our team of experts has just released the 5 stocks with the greatest probability of gaining +100% or more in the coming months.
